Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

1. Form ground beef into 4 patties and create a slight indentation in the center of each

2. Place one Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup in each indentation

3. Carefully seal the beef around the peanut butter cup, ensuring it’s completely enclosed

4. Season patties with salt and pepper

5. Cook bacon until crispy and set aside

6. Grill or pan-cook burger patties for 4-5 minutes per side until cooked to desired doneness

7. Toast burger buns lightly

8. Assemble burgers with patties, bacon, onion straws, and desired toppings

Notes

Ensure peanut butter cups are completely sealed inside the beef to prevent leaking during cooking.

Let burgers rest 2-3 minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute.

For best results, use room temperature peanut butter cups for easier sealing.
